The Future of Wi-Fi

by Steve Jen Nothing The Wi-Fi fuelling our laptop and mobile devices continue to grow exponentially. The consistent growth of devices and applications is leading to consumption of greater bandwidth, thus creating demand for more sophisticated connectivity solutions.

According to an estimate, public hotspots are likely to increase 8-fold over the next four years. This means, 2016 will see deployment of Wi-Fi in a big way. Let’s take a look at top 3 predictions for the coming year to know how the technology can reshape our future.

1.    Wi-Fi will be in More Places

Today, more than 50 percent internet users rely on wireless technology globally. Considering the growing usage, telecommunication companies are consistently working to improve the technology to meet the growing and varied needs customers for wireless connectivity. Experts believe that Wi-Fi deployment will increase substantially in 2016 with some using Wi-Fi Certified Passpoint thus enabling seamless connectivity across cities and even continents. Public users will particularly benefit from the enhanced Wi-Fi as service providers scale up their capabilities to keep pace with record traffic from around the world.

Modern consumers demand Wi-Fi no matter where they are. In 2016, Wi-Fi will be a standard amenity with automobile manufacturers and home builders offering connectivity in an extended line of products.

2.    Wi-Fi Will Improve User Experience

Considering the need for secure wireless connectivity, the industry is planning to introduce a collaborative model for LTE-U devices. The Wi-Fi and LTE-U coexistence will promote fair sharing by all LTE-U devices by transmitting data over both licensed and unlicensed spectrum. By combining the sophisticated attributes of 4G LTE Advanced and spectrum sharing capabilities, the technology will ensure fair sharing with unlicensed uses, including Wi-Fi.

LTE-U uses 4G LTE Advance features, which allows it to support 1000x increase in data transmission, thus providing consumers with a far better user experience. The wide scale deployment of LTE-U will soon equip service providers with the capacity to deliver improved level of services to effectively meet the growing demands of connectivity.

3.    Wi-Fi Will Support Location-Based Applications Development

Wi-Fi will give rise to a new breed of innovative applications centered on location based data. With precise location based information, Wi-Fi will allow developers to create highly sophisticated programs and applications to bring online users even closer to the world around them. The location based application development will benefit a range of sectors including healthcare, consumers, and service industry.
